set_xsave()unsafebecause the Ckvm_xsavestruct was extended to have a flexible array member (FAM) in the end in Linux 5.16 andKVM_SET_XSAVEmay copy data beyond the traditional size (i.e. 4096 bytes).

First release of the kvm-ioctls crate.
The kvm-ioctls crate provides safe wrappers over the KVM API, a set of ioctls used for creating and configuring Virtual Machines (VMs) on Linux. The ioctls are accessible through four structures:
- Kvm - wrappers over system ioctls
- VmFd - wrappers over VM ioctls
- VcpuFd - wrappers over vCPU ioctls
- DeviceFd - wrappers over device ioctls
The kvm-ioctls can be used on x86_64 and aarch64. Right now the aarch64 support is considered experimental.
